We learn that little jim chalmers,
"the jug-belied runt," whose home
Il now in Tennessee, has recently
been down in Mississippi trying to
stir up some opposition to Joe Slack,
the Democratic nominee for district
attorney in this district. If there
was ever anything wanting to make
Mr.. Slack's election sure, little jimmy
has supplied that want by simply
opposing him. In this connection,
We will say that we have heard it
rumored, only rumored, that Mr.. ".
d. Miller, of Surdis, might possibly
be an Independent candidate for
district attorney. We do not believe
there can be any foundation, in fact,
for this rumor.
We have the honor of personal
acquaintance with Mr.. Miller, and
have had for number of years past,
and we have always known him as %
gentleman and a man of good, sound
sense-tOo sensible, in fact, to enter
in = contest with certainty Of over
wheiming defeat staring him in the
face.
There is no organized opposition to
the Democracy in single county in
this district that we know Of; nor do
We believe there will be, and under
existing circumstances, it would be
simply political suicide for Mr.. Miller
or Mr.. Anybody.else to run against
the nominee the Democratic party.
This ia a Demodratic district in a
Democratic State, and the Demo-
cratic citizens thereof done want
any little Republican one-horse law
yer from another State to come down
here and instruct us how to run
things. Little Jimmy would do a
much cashier business to remain at
home and tote his own skillet.
Shoul there be any luckiess wight,
however, with sufficient temerity to
come out against Mr.. Slack, we can
safely promise him the liveIiest cam
paign OF his eXpefienoe--be that what
II may. Joe Slack is abundantly
able snd abundantly willing to make
tue fur fly, and somebody else has
got to furnish the fur.

The Alliance now numbers s30, 600
IN Texas, and have already fully
demonstrated the practicability Of a
cooperative system of buying and
selling, and they are rapidly pushing
their organization 10 q success
throughout the South and West.
They own more than one hundred
cotton warehouses Ia Texas, and
already have acquired a commercial
standing that enables them to place
their cotton directly to the SINNERS,
without the assistance of the horde
of organized spectators ut whose
mercy they have been so long sub
jeetsd, and from whose mercy they
have been so long subjected, and
from whose greedy avarice they have
40 long suffered.
They are unanimous in their de-
mands for the enforcement of the
Interstate Commerce bill, and for
revision and reduction of the tariff,
and at the same time are turning
their attention to manufacturing as
we'll as producing, so that if the rail-
roads continue to discriminate, and
the legislator insists .on a protect
i've tariff, they will become the bene-
flciaries of this protection and of this
unjust Discrimination.
II is a fact that none can dispute,
that the farmers of this nation hold
the balance Of power, and ouly lack
organization and cooperation in or
der to WELD it to an extent that it
will place agriculture upon plane
to be cnvied rather than dishonored
a few years Of patient industry, rigid
economy, and commercial political
cooperation, would place agriculture
upon basis that the young men of
our country would not look above it
for occupation, but would find it just
as pleasant, just as profitable, just as
honorable as clerkship or a pro-
fession.--State Wheel.

thanks for the warm-hearted enthu-
siastlc support they gave me in the
contest for the nomination for Dis
trict Attorney.
Lam especially grateful to the peo-
pie Of Tailahatchie county. In that
county only was y fight made against
me which in any way reelected upon
my political Integrity or personal
character, and the endorsement Of
the Democrats Of that county, eX.
pressed by voting for me one hundred
and seventeen ballots in the couven.
tiOn, is more gratifying to me than
any nomination within the gift Of the
Democratic party. 1t is unnecessary
for me to say that the nominee shall
have my enthusiastic support. do
most earnestly urge my friends
throughout the district to give Mr.,
Slack the same hearty, generous and
vigorous support that they would
have given me had received the
nom nation, and that they viii zeal
ousiy cooperate with me in working
to give larger majority than | have
ever Obtained--which WAS over six

and cat-like as she addressed herself
to me. When in her agreeable"
moods, she had sort of purr in her
voice, and 1 never heard her speak
without thinking of a cat, with its soft
purr and velvet paws, but ready at
any moment to use both teeth and
claws without pity or remorse. She
smiled as she said:
81 was just looking for you Miss
Rembert, to introduce you to my
daughter Winnifed, who will now re-
quire your attendance until Pauline's
return. You will find Miss Barron
very nervous, and beg that you will
carefully avoid any conversation that
may tend to worry or excite her. You
will find medicines there with direc-

CHAPTER x.
A week passed away with no spe-
cial event except my meeting Pauline
on the stairs-she had in her great
coarse hand, small riding whip, and
knowing she scould not ride, as there
were none but the two carriage horses
at Barronville, asked her impulsive-
ly, "what she was going to do with
that little riding whip?" She was a
French Creole, and had great black
blood-shot eyes, and coarse, hard feat
ures, and great hands and feet like
her mistress.
She gave me an insolent look. and
replied by telling me to "mind my
own business, and not be asking ques-
tions about what did not concern me. "
I felt tha. ] had made a mistake-or
rather that I had committed an i'm
prudence, so said nothing more.
One weary, drizzly day, as I stood
looking out of the school-room win
dow while sharpening a pencil for
Lula, 1 again saw the Viyian livery,
and this time it was Pete, mounted on
one of his mas Charles horses. He
looked up at the window and held up
white letter, or note, which l knew
at once was for me, and to be sure OF
receiving it, | aan down to the door
and took it from Pete's own hand.
He grinned and took off his cap IS he
| delivered it, saying:
"I make sure you git dis letter
NIistis, eff had to wait whole day
to see you, for Miss Alice said l was
to put it into your own little white
hand"
I thanked him, and told him to
wait for reply, while I read these
| pleasant words.
"My Dear Miss Rembert,
1 left message for you with Miss
Barron a week ago, but hearing moth
ing from you, l concluded that ii
must have escaped her memory. Mrs
B. tells me that you decline receiving
any visitors during your stay at Bar

We were informed short time since, by a reliable party, that there Is band of rustlers, with headquarters on Canyon creek. in the Mogollon mountains, who are carrying things with a high hand. I, is said there has been at least 3OO head of horses stolen, during the past year. from the western portion of this county alone.
